The Department realizes that crime is a problem that affects all segments of our society, and is a concern of everyone. The Binghamton Police Department will make every attempt to involve the community in generating mutual understanding and cooperation between the residents and Police Department of Binghamton. Involving the community will enhance both police and residents knowledge of the nature and extent of the crime problem in the city. The police and community members working together against crime will be a major step in crime deterrence. Although, there are certain crimes that cannot be prevented, crimes committed against innocent victims in public places and crimes against property can be deterred by proactive police operations and an involved community. The Binghamton Police Department plans to deter crime by increasing police presence both on foot patrol and police vehicle presence in neighborhoods and business areas. The Community Response Team will saturate high crime areas and make pro-active community policing their focus. The Police and community working together will make the City of Binghamton a better place to live, work and do business.

The City of Binghamton is on continually recruiting for Police Officers. If you are interested in becoming a police officer please go to our recruitment website www.joinbpd.com.

The mission of the Community Response Team (CRT) is to improve quality of life in the City through proactive law enforcement and community policing. Composed of three Police Officers and one Police Sergeant, CRT's goal is to work together with residents to reclaim areas as safe, clean, productive places to live and raise a family. CRT uses a service-focused approach that encourages active citizen participation and enables policing efforts to grow and progress from reactive to proactive to coactive. With the police and the community working together, these collaborative partnerships have jointly identified, prioritized and solved problems. CRT utilizes officers both in uniform and in plain clothes, and both marked police cars and unmarked cars. Areas of the City in which CRT works are determined by need. CRT's Community Policing Methods—CRT fields a steady number of direct telephone complaints from citizens to the CRT Office. In response to each of these complaints, CRT officers attempt to connect with each complainant personally, hear their concern, learn the issue in detail, formulate a strategy together to combat the problem, and assure them that their complaint is significant and being addressed. Additionally, complainants often get to meet CRT Officers face-to-face and are given their cell phone numbers so the complainant can speak to a CRT member as the crime or problem occurs. This type of community policing has proven to be a valuable tool in building community trust and partnership, and often leads to arrests of offenders, as well as repeat tips from callers.

Participation in Neighborhood Watch/Community Meetings

The CRT Sergeant actively communicates with coordinators of local Neighborhood Watch and action groups. The coordinators of such groups provide valuable information on neighborhood problems, including complaints and tips. Communication with these coordinators is two-way, as the CRT Sergeant provides updates on progress the police department has made. Neighborhood coordinators keep the tips and complaints coming in, while bringing back information to their concerned residents.

Working with Local Businesses

CRT reaches out to several local businesses with a history of problems in and around their location. This establishes a line of communication with the business community to effectively identify and address their concerns. The CRT Sergeant gives out business cards with cell phone and email contact information, so the business owners have means to get assistance with problems in and around the business.

Monitoring City Cameras

CRT has access to the City public safety street camera systems. By simply monitoring street activities and directing resources in an efficient and effective manner, CRT members have made numerous arrests, including for charges of narcotics possession and prostitution.

CRT Special Assignments

CRT is deployed where needed based on community issues, events and data-driven policing. Some specific instances include patrolling disturbances at Binghamton High School, Binghamton University "Welcome Back Weekend" heightened patrols, Binghamton University Off-Campus College walk-a-rounds, St. Patrick's Parade Day patrols, West Side burglary patrol, West Side robbery patrol, robbery sting detail, assisting Detectives in searching for various suspect(s), patrolling the downtown parking ramps for larceny suspects, or any other identified need for focused effort.

Collaboration with S.I.U./Broome County Task Force and Detective Bureau

CRT works side-by-side with the SIU (Special Investigations Unit), meeting regularly to discuss investigations and cases. SIU will often lend their investigators to assist CRT officers with interviews of arrestees and with narcotics cases. Conversely, CRT lends its officers to SIU to assist with search warrants, surveillances, traffic stops, identifying suspects, and apprehending targets. SIU uses CRT's high volume of narcotics arrests as a starting point to develop confidential informants. CRT also assists the Department's Detective Bureau when requested, including in serving subpoenas, conducting surveillances of a target location, and/or locating and apprehending wanted suspects.

Miscellaneous CRT Highlights

Other CRT highlights include:

• Assisting advocates from the Addiction Center of Broome County in locating and speaking with at-risk subjects in an attempt to get them into counseling and/or rehabilitation centers.
• Attending numerous community outreach and public awareness meetings.
• Assisting the Patrol Division during Pub Crawl, LUMA and Parade Day events.
• Collaborating with the Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) program in identifying and working to correct nuisance properties.
• Assisting the Detective Division with neighborhood canvases for major/serious crimes and follow-up investigations.
• Conducting details (robbery, burglary, etc.) pertaining to crime rate increases in specified areas of the City.
• Responding to narcotics activity calls dispatched to the Patrol Division in an effort to assist with Patrol's call volume and provide "quality of life" police actions for affected neighborhoods.

The Department operates a Crime Prevention Unit (CPU) that strongly encourages Police and Community partnerships and actively supports Neighborhood Watch Groups. The Department realizes that crime is a problem that affects all segments of our society and is a concern of everyone. The Binghamton Police Department will make every attempt to involve the community in generating mutual understanding and cooperation between the residents and Police Department. Involving the community will enhance both police and resident knowledge of the nature and extent of crime in the City. The police and community members working together against crime is a major step in crime deterrence. Neighborhood Watch is one of the most effective and least costly ways to prevent crime and reduce fear. Neighborhood Watch fights the isolation that crime both creates and feeds upon. It forges bonds among area residents, helps reduce burglaries and robberies, and improves relations between police and the communities they serve. The Binghamton Police Department Crime Prevention Unit will assist in establishing Neighborhood Watch groups.

As of 2025, there are five sworn members assigned to the Binghamton Police Crime Prevention Unit: a Police Captain, one Crime Prevention Unit Officer and three School Resource Officers.

Grants

The CPU is responsible for many police grants, including the Gun Involved Violence Elimination (GIVE) grant, Statewide Targeted Restrictions in Intimate Partner Violence (STRIVE), Homeland Security, Justice Assistance Grants, COPS grants, and several BYRNE legislative grants. These grants bring hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Department and the City of Binghamton for programs, equipment, and many community-based policing initiatives. CPU's grant responsibilities include:

• Grant Researching
• Grant Applications
• Grant Financial Accounting
• Grant Progress Reports

National Night Out

The Department participates in National Night Out with several neighborhood groups. Events are held at several Binghamton City parks and locations. National Night Out is designed to:

• Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness
• Generate support for and participation in local anticrime programs
• Strengthening neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships
• Send a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back against crime

Safety Presentations

The CPU conducts various public safety presentations upon request by neighborhood groups, community organizations and any group. Presentation topics include personal safety, senior scams, crime prevention, and other matters related to the Department. In 2025, the CPU created several new presentations on personal and public safety and conducted them throughout the year.

Cameras

The CPU maintained more than 43 public cameras located throughout the City. The Department began installing closed-circuit public cameras in 2006. By utilizing numerous New York State funding sources, the C.C. Camera project was initiated as part of an overall strategy to reduce violent crime in targeted areas. The location of the cameras was determined by intelligence and crime analysis. The demand to retrieve video from these cameras has continued to increase, and these videos remain a vital piece of evidence in many cases. CPU is exploring installation of additional cameras around the City.

School Resource Officers

There are currently three School Resource Officers assigned to the Binghamton City School District. One officer has been assigned to the Binghamton High School campus for many years. Since 2014, an officer has been assigned to both East and West Middle Schools, as well. These Officers work closely with school officials in various programs. When school is not in session, the Officers are assigned to the Patrol Division. The School Resource Officer program is funded by the Binghamton City School District.

For more information on any of these programs, please contact the Crime Prevention Unit at (607) 772-7091.

In order to bring cases to a successful resolution, the unit works closely with parents/guardians, City schools, Gang Prevention, Family Court, the Broome County District Attorney's Office, County Social Services, County Juvenile Probation Department, the Broome County Child Advocacy Center, and other youth and service agencies.

Identification Unit (Crime Scene Unit & Property)

The Identification Unit (I.D./Crime Scene/Property/Evidence) is responsible for the classification, maintenance, security, and disposition of all non-agency property coming into its custody. The Identification Unit assists other Departmental units with the identification, collection, and custodial security of evidence, as well as evidence processing, analysis, and protection of the chain of custody.

The unit maintains a Statewide Automated Biometric Identification System (SABIS) regional workstation, which has access to the New York State and Federal fingerprint databases. Quality fingerprint images that have been recovered from crime scenes can be traced through SABIS and can result in identifying a suspect who may be responsible for committing a crime. Neighboring law enforcement agencies utilize this workstation by submitting their latent fingerprint evidence to this unit for analysis and searching within the database. Personnel assigned to I.D. have utilized their expertise in examining latent fingerprints to solve many cases by effecting identifications of unknown suspects.

The Crime Scene Unit started using digital imaging many years ago for documenting evidence and crime scenes. The Binghamton Police Department was the first agency on the East Coast to utilize an authentication software database, which is recommended by the FBI. The unit is responsible for training patrol officers in the use of assigned l cameras and maintaining the digital image database, which includes disseminating images by various means to the District Attorney's Office, other criminal justice agencies and in satisfaction of public records requests.
